Frequently Asked Questions

What is a proxy?

A proxy or a proxy server is an intermediary between a user and the internet resources. When utilizing a proxy, the user’s request is processed via the proxy server first, and only then the proxy server connects to the required web server asking to fulfil the initial request. The use of proxy allows hiding the user’s real IP address.

What are data center proxies?

Data center proxies are private proxies that are not affiliated with an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Data center proxies come from a secondary corporation and provide you with entirely private IP authentication and a high level of anonymity. The main benefit that data center proxies offer is rapid response times.

What are residential proxies?

Residential proxies are IP addresses provided by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to homeowners. Residential proxies are legitimate IP addresses attached to a physical location. The main benefit of residential proxies is the high anonymity level.
